KBS has unveiled a new special poster for its upcoming drama “My Girlfriend Is the Man!”
Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, “My Girlfriend Is the Man!” is a romantic comedy about a college student whose girlfriend unexpectedly transforms into a man.
ASTRO’s Yoon San Ha will star as Park Yoon Jae, an astronomy student who is head over heels for his girlfriend Kim Ji Eun (played by OH MY GIRL’s Arin). Due to a gene that runs in her family, Kim Ji Eun suddenly turns into a handsome man (played by Yoo Jung Hoo) and begins going by the name Kim Ji Hoon.
The newly released poster hints at the vastly different dynamics that Yoon Jae shares with Ji Eun versus Ji Hoon. When he’s cuddling with Ji Eun, the smitten Yoon Jae is overtly affectionate, playfully resting his head on her shoulder and striking cute poses for the camera.
However, the couple’s lovey-dovey vibe changes when Ji Eun transforms into Ji Hoon. Although Ji Hoon is just as affectionate as Ji Eun, Yoon Jae is visibly flustered by the cute behavior of the male version of his girlfriend, and he even attempts to keep his distance out of embarrassment.
“This special poster captures the refreshing shock, laughter, and warmth of our gender change premise, which transcends the existing romance formula,” said the drama’s producion team. “We hope that it will make you even more excited for the first episode.”
“My Girlfriend Is the Man!” premieres on July 23 at 9:50 p.m. KST and will be available to watch on Viki.
